Lost Play

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or play:

“Even in my own writings I cannot always recover the meaning of my former ideas; I know not what I meant to say, and often get into a regular heat, correcting and putting a new sense into it, having lost the first and better one. I do nothing but come and go. My judgement does not always forge straight ahead; it strays and wanders.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“When I played drunks I had to remain sober because I didn’t know how to play them when I was drunk.”
